Standing is FUN!

So far, Little Man is liking his stander. He makes the most pitiful faces when he is done with it though. I do believe it has opened up a whole new world for him though- he just seems more interested in what's going on around him when he's standing. Usually, he is most interested in what his big brother, famously known as Capt. Chaos is doing...


He aint heavy, he's my brother! Capt. Chaos loves to "help" Little Man look at something & to "fix his head". He's really quite gentle with him. So sweet:)

His head control has really improved- much quicker than I even expected. He holds his head up for about 15 minutes at a time when something interesting is going on. Otherwise, he rests it on his arms or the stander frame.

Its especially sweet to see how excited that Capt. Chaos is about Little Man standing. He says cute things like "He's almost as tall as me" or "Now he can really watch me jump around"- something that gives Little Man the giggles everytime:)

Sorry for the lack of modesty with Capt. Chaos. He just prefers to be in various states of undress.

The NTX snow is truly post-worthy! CC made wonderful first snowmen!

I am so pleased to see Little Man's progress with standing.

Did you notice - I linked your Jan 29 post into one of mine, and then my next post included hippotherapy?

I'm so glad he likes it. He looks wonderful. (I remember when my little man was that small & just started to use a stander.) It does wonders for the head control. :)

I clearly need sleep--deleted my comment b/c it was the ramblings of a confused woman. Anyway, wanted to say that my son really enjoyed his stander but he's out-grown it now and we've nto gotten a replacement. It really improved his use of his hands.
